About Education & Care Service
Education & Care Services are mainstream early learning centres that offer full-day or part-day care with a structured curriculum, qualified teachers, and a focus on learning through play. They cater to families needing flexible childcare options and wanting a balanced approach that supports social, physical, and early academic development in a diverse environment.
What Is 20 Hours ECE funding?
20 Hours ECE is a government-funded initiative that helps reduce the cost of early childhood education for families with tamariki aged 3–5. Eligible children can receive up to 20 hours of funded care and education each week at participating services. Centres can set their own enrolment patterns and may ask for optional charges, but the funded hours themselves should be free of compulsory fees. If you are unsure how this works at Montessori Children's House Kerikeri, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

“A perfect place for a child to learn and grow, lovely caring staff, fellow parents and children. A good mix of cultures and backgrounds. Lots of different learning experiences for parents too. I could go on, but put simply I wouldn’t want my child anywhere else.”

“Our daughter has been at Montessori for almost 3 years now and we couldn’t fault it at all, I could write a novel about how awesome our experience has been here. I think the most important thing is that Montessori feels like a second home for our little girl. Thank you!”
“Annie, Noah and the team at MCH are some of the most incredible wahine. I could not ask for a better team to care for our children. We love montessori philosophy and could not recommend it enough.”
